Hopefully to spend it all in Europe!
And most of the profits taxed.
Not sure, if we can completely replace US weapons, including jets and so on, already.
I guess, that much will be spend at European companies, but I'm pretty sure a bulk will go the the USA military industry
and maybe also other countries - I'm not really up-to-date with current military capabilities and production facilities in Europe or worldwideMaybe someone more knowledgeable could chime in
